UN's report
on Iraq discusses possible coalition war crimes
by MATTHEW SCHOFIELD |
"So
how do the rightwingers get elected if they
have nothing to say about the most important
issues facing the American people? That
is the central question of modern American
politics. And the answer is that they work
day and night to divide the American people
against each other so that they end up voting
against their own best interests. That is
what the Republican Party is all about."
--Rep. Bernie Sanders from VT, The Progressive,
February 2004, p.28
